Does AA still have some Skywest CR7s flying around with only 6F? I’ve noticed all of my upcoming Skywest CR7s are 9F now. Hopefully they’ve standardized them all by now.

My Skywest CR7 today just got swapped from a 9F to a 6F configuration and row 3 totally just got the shaft (I’m in row 1 so unaffected).
you'd think AA would book these planes to 6F and do the last 3 upgrades at the gate or just standardize the whole fleet to 9F for commonality like they are so eager to do with Oasis and the mainline fleet - guess not though.

Well, having been just screwed on a aawasis 737 swap to a non-aawaysis 737, row 10 was a MCE, turned into a non-MCE without a window, it's not great on the mainline either. Then again on the flight out on a CRJ700, it was a 9F to 6F swap, and the seat numbers also changed, so again MCE to crap seat. Fortunately, exit row was still open, so I managed to get one of them. For the life of me I don't understand how they manage to screw this up so bad all the time. If you were in the 3 rows of MCE, you stay in the new numbered 3 rows, how hard is it really?

Landed at ORD to get a VM from AA telling me I've been moved from 1A on the CR7 to coach with no seat assignment, and a $300 voucher proactively offered and already in my inbox. At the AC I ask to at least get my original paid MCE seat assignment back (since they're so liberal about moving people around) but they won't budge. Now in one of the last rows.....UGH.

What route were you on that they offered $300?
